God in the modern world
Question: Where does God fit into this picture?
Answer: Everywhere. In all of the ordinary circumstances and events of our lives.
In the words of Opus Dei's founder St. Josemaria, "There is no other way, either we learn to find our Lord in ordinary, everyday life, or we shall never find him. That is why I tell you that our age needs to give back to matter and to the apparently trivial events of life their noble, original meaning. It needs to place them at the service of the Kingdom of God; it needs to spiritualize them, turning them into a means and an occasion for a continuous meeting with Jesus Christ. "
